Shipping class exception

    One particular item in my client’s store is bulky and therefore costs more than the weight range we’ve defined. The shipping method is 24-32oz = $14 (which works fine). The item in question is 30oz, but costs $19 to ship. I am trying to create an exception with a shipping class, however no change is reflected in the cart although it is showing on the shipping method page. The cart won’t charge more than $14 shipping for the item. Am I missing something to make this work and charge $19 just for this bulky item?

    Are you sure you didn’t limit shiping price with Min/Max Shipping Price options?

    Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I do have a limit shipping price (min=14, max=14). When disable the max shipping price, it makes the shipping an outrageous $500-somthing. Settings are as follows:

    Handling Fee=0
    Shipping rate=14
    Min shipping price=14
    Max shipping price=14
    Extra weight only=disabled
    Weight step=empty
    Min weight=25
    Max weight=32
    Min Subtotal=empty
    Min Subtotal=empty
    Subtotal with tax=disabled
    Shipping & Handling Class Overrides
    —–Shipping & Handling Class=class name
    —–Handling Fee=0
    —–Shipping & Handling Rate=19
    —–Weight Step=empty

    Any clue as to why it’s not working?

    And, yes, I did set the shipping class on the product page.

    You have clamped total shipping price between Min shipping price=14 and Max shipping price=14 which gives you exactly 14 in any case. You don’t need that, so leave those fields empty.

    Shipping Rate is for shipping price per 1 weight unit (oz, in your case). Since you don’t need a progressive rate leave it empty too.

    What you really need to use instead is Handling Fee which gives a flat shipping fee.
